Welcome to the Americana Series Study Group home page.
The Americana Series Study Group (ASSG) is dedicated to the study of the definitive series known as the Americana Series of United States postage stamps which were issued from 1975 to 1981. We are a member group of the United States Stamp Society (USSS). The focus of the group is to study the printing, varieties, errors, First Day Covers, rates, and usages of the series. The aim of the group is to share information and findings and to encourage further study of the series. To this end, the ASSG produces an electronic newsletter entitled The Iron Betty (after the design of the 50-cent stamp in the Americana Series), in which the group will encourage members to share their thoughts, opinions, and findings about the Americana Series. Additionally, the group will publish periodic progress and findings reports in The Specialist, the monthly journal of the USSS. This website is also a benefit of membership in the study group. Membership, of course, is free and is open to anyone who wishes to study the Americana Series stamps. Membership in the USSS is not necessary to be a member of the ASSG. Again welcome to our home page, and I hope you enjoy what you find here.
